An extract from Jacqueline Wilson's Double Act provides writing opportunities for KS2 English students.
Double Act centres on twins, Ruby and Garnet, who have moved away with their Dad and his new girlfriend.
The extract depicts their first week at a new school and their plans to behave so badly, they'll be expelled and sent back home to their Gran.
Writing opportunities for KS2 pupils include creating their own school stories or versions of the twins' experiences. Role play and hot-seating could also be used to prompt writing about the twins' feelings in their new circumstances.
